ActiVida, Inc. is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to uplifting youth and their families through sport, fitness, and community wellbeing.

Our roots go back to The Positive Youth Sports, Fitness, and Beyond Project (2024–2025), a pilot Community Leadership Program (CLP) designed by Dr. Shawn Stein at Littleton High School. Made possible through funding from the City of Littleton and partnerships with Littleton Public Schools and local businesses, this program laid the foundation for everything ActiVida is today.

Our CLP offers largely subsidized, experiential learning through Community Leadership Immersion Programs and ActiVida Club — a student-led enrichment program that empowers youth to build community through active lifestyles and cultural celebrations like Día del Niño and Día de Muertos. Participants develop real leadership skills through sports, dance, martial arts, yoga, meditation, ninja obstacle training, and outdoor adventures.

With societal divisions on the rise, programs that unite young people across cultural and social lines matter more than ever. Students from underserved communities face socioeconomic barriers, language obstacles, cultural stigmas, and systemic inequities that limit their potential. ActiVida exists to break those cycles — built around three core pillars of community engagement, leadership development, and team empowerment.

Your donation makes it possible to:

✅ Provide healthy snacks for youth participants

✅ Host high-quality fitness workshops that connect youth across cultural differences

✅ Train volunteer mentors to guide ActiVida Club members on their leadership journeys

✅ Expand our programs to additional underserved communities across the Denver Metro area

This event is free to attend with a suggested donation of $20 towards ActiVida. You do not need to RSVP to attend, and no one will be turned away at the gate for lack of funds. Every contribution — no matter the size — fuels the ActiVida mission and inspires the generosity of others. Thank you for supporting our cause and helping us carry out our mission!
